Why Too Much Comparison Holds You Back

Your friends' scores, the speed of their feet, the strength of their games, and what they have. There are many things to compare with. If you just do a little comparison, it can be a goal.

Too much comparison can hide your own growth because it keeps your eyes fixed on someone else's best moments.

Change who you compare yourself to

Instead of always comparing yourself to your friends, compare yourself to who you were yesterday. I was able to solve one more question than yesterday. I was able to hit it a little faster than before. I was able to consult earlier than before. That's proper growth.

Use people's good qualities as material to imitate

When I discover something amazing about a friend, I don't just feel depressed, I think, "What can I imitate?" Turn comparison into strategy development.
